I consult for The Conversation Group, the leading social media agency. My work focuses on how social neetworks of various hues can improve business performance, change the work environment for the better and generally make life good.

I wrote for yearse in papers like the Irish Times but also for Food and Wine magazine, the Wall St Journal, the Times and many others.

I currently write about issues that stem from technological innovations and I try to search out and work out the cultural implications of those innovations.

I have five children and I also have two gardens. One is organic while the other is low carbon.

I have a small art gallery where I try to promote artists who are both innovative and thoughtful about their moral place. Of course they also produce beautiful images.
